| CINCINNATI (AP)The flaws were obvious but the ending was different. The Bengals finally won a game in Denver Tyler Eifert Jersey , keeping their hopes for a playoff berth barely flickering for at least one more week. It’ll take a statistically improbable series of events – a closing flourish by the Bengals, a closing implosion by numerous other teams – but at least there’s a chance. The overriding question: Can the Bengals (4-6) fix the myriad problems that have dragged them down all season? The Broncos’ struggles helped them win despite another very flawed performance. ”I don’t want it to sound like, `Hey, this was great,”’ offensive coordinator Bill Lazor said Monday. ”It wasn’t great. No one walked out saying it was great, other than the fact we won. ”But I think sometimes you get into those ruts in a season where you feel like if we could just get a win right now, maybe we can get the momentum turned, and I thought that’s what we were able to do.” Andy Dalton got more time to throw and ended up with three touchdown passes Drew Sample Cincinnati Bengals Jersey , the last to A.J. Green for the decisive points in the 20-17 victory . But the running game was as bad as ever – 49 total yards – and the defense again had trouble getting off the field. The Broncos (3-7) ran 26 more plays and had the ball for 10 minutes more than the Bengals. Denver also vastly outgained Cincinnati, 341-190, but self-destructed along the way. In response, the Broncos fired offensive coordinator Mike McCoy on Monday and elevated quarterbacks coach Bill Musgrave. The Bengals’ first win in Denver since 1975, when franchise founder Paul Brown was the head coach, gave them a chance to do something accomplished only four times since the league went to the current playoff format in 1990. The only teams to reach the postseason after starting 3-6 are the 1994 Patriots, the 1995 Lions, the 1996 Jaguars and the 2012 Redskins. ”Everything is still out in front of us Drew Sample Jersey 2019 ,” Dalton said . ”We just need to keep winning.” The Bengals haven’t won more than two games in a row. One of the most glaring problems has been the offensive line’s inability to protect Dalton or open holes for running backs. Dalton hasn’t been sacked as often lately – only twice in Denver – but the running game remains the biggest problem, ranking last in the NFL and worst in franchise history . They’re on pace to rush for 1,088 yards, easily their worst for a non-strike season. Their 3-yard average would shatter the club low mark of 3.6 yards. ”We’re failing to get the job done,” coach Marvin Lewis said Monday. NO EJECTIONS The Bengals ended their streak of two straight games with a star ejected before halftime. Green was tossed in Jacksonville, and linebacker Vontaze Burfict was thrown out in Tennessee. In Denver, Green led with four catches for 50 yards. Burfict had a team-high 12 tackles and a sack, along with forcing a fumble. ”You have a better shot at winning when your best players are on the field Youth Drew Sample Jersey ,” Lewis said. HOME AGAIN The Bengals host winless Cleveland (0-10) on Sunday in the first of three straight home games. Pittsburgh (8-2) then visits for a Monday night game, followed by a visit from Chicago (3-7). Cincinnati is 2-2 at Paul Brown Stadium this season and 6-5 over the past two seasons. The Browns have dropped six straight to the Bengals, including 31-7 on Oct. 1. — James Urban could impact how the Ravens try to stop A.J. Green A.J. Green is very good at football. For whatever reason, he becomes extremely good at football when he plays the Baltimore Ravens.A good portion of Green’s most spectacular moments have come with the ever-feared Ravens defense on the other side of the field. There was the tipped-Hail Mary back in 2013, the bobbled-touchdown in 2014, and perhaps his signature game in 2015 when he scored twice off 227 yards receiving and 10 catches. Four of his five games with at least 70 receiving yards against the Ravens have happened in Baltimore as well. It’s hard to think that one of Cincinnati’s biggest rivals didn’t have these facts in the back of their mind when they hired the only wide receivers coach Green’s ever had in the NFL this past offseason as their new quarterbacks coach.For the seven years Green’s played in the league (prior to this season), James Urban was with him every step of the way. He was brought in as the Bengals wide receivers coach in 2011, which was Green’s rookie season. A talent like Green probably didn’t need as much coaching as other receivers Urban has had to develop and refine White Drew Sample Jersey , but Urban probably knows everything about Green that makes him who he is as a Pro Bowl player.Now, Urban’s new tasks deal with getting quarterback Joe Flacco ready to play every week and developing his backup Lamar Jackson as the Ravens new quarterbacks coach. The position was one that Urban held before coming to Cincinnati with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2009 and 2010, with both Donovan McNabb and Michael Vick having Pro Bowl seasons in those respective years. The work Urban put in under then-Eagles head coach Andy Reid got him a seven-year run in Cincinnati. And after a good run with the Bengals, Urban’s old friend from Philadelphia, John Harbaugh—the Eagles long-time special teams coordinator under Reid—brought him on to help usher in the Jackson-era at quarterback, and get the best out of Flacco’s final year(s).But this week, Urban’s knowledge about the receiver he coached for seven years had to have been a focal point in the Ravens’ game plan. Not every time has Green torched the Ravens—they actually held him to just 91 yards combined in both meetings last year—but the damage Green has done to Harbaugh’s defense in the past can’t be ignored. Green’s already a focal point for every defense to mitigate, the Ravens just happen to have more reason than most.Maybe the info Urban revealed will have an impact on the Ravens’ plan to stop Green; maybe Green is too talented for a secondary whose best cornerback (Jimmy Smith) is suspended until Week 5. Both are probably true to an extent Drew Sample Jersey Mens , and how this matchup unfolds will be an interesting storyline in a game where both offenses are more talented than in recent years.Remember in 2015 when Harbaugh said, “One of these days, we’ll figure out how to cover A.J. Green. It’d be nice if we did it one time before he retires.”Hiring Urban could go a long way toward doing just that. Hopefully, Green and the Bengals have plans to ensure that’s not what happens. |
